The following text is taken from Appendix A - Details of Illustrations:
Figures 11a and 11b are based upon information from an article and drawings published in 'The Engineer' and dated September 24th 1909.
Figure 11a - Site of the Penarth floating dry-dock. It should be noted that details of the floating dry-dock have been left off the figure since they are not relevant to the quay alterations made to accommodate the dry-dock. It should also be noted that in the overall plan of the site the north-west corner of the dock was fitted with a platform extending over the water at quay level. This is not shown in the plan but would have coincided with the edge of the adjacent plan of the pontoon.
